Reusing magic bands?

[maj42169]

We decided to plan a spur of the moment trip that is less than 30 days out. Are we able to use the magic bands we already have, or will we have to use the plain grey ones we will get at the resort?

Yes, you can use the ones you already have. There is nothing on a Magic Band except a link to your MDE/MDX account.

Yes MsThumper is right ( Love that user name ) I answered on another thread somewhere around here something very similar :

I have one that has been used for 4 resort stays since Aug or Sept and will be used again this Sept If you don't personalize them in the MDE you won't get one in the mail :

"Your MDE page will say something like "your Magic Band will be waiting for you at check in" ( or something like that ) it will be the generic gray color It said that for every resort reservation and says it for the one coming up

At check in I refused it ( 4 different resorts ) each CM when questioned as to what happens to it now stated that it would just be used for another guest since at that point there is no info on it connected to me They get truck loads of these generic MBs delivered on a regular basis They aren't thrown out so not wasting anything

No judgement by me, to each his/her own I just have the color I want and since the battery is supposed to last 2 or 3 years that's good enough for me"
